I appreciate Bill for what he did and always will remember him fondly but am happy he's calling it quits at the same time.

Good person, did so much for us, happy he’s aware it’s time. Happy to recently hear Gene wants Sean gone too.

Just can't put words to how I feel.  On one hand, I'm grateful that he came to Kansas State and made us relevant from the disasters of pre 1988.

But on the other hand, I also am glad that he is aware that it's time.

Thanks, Coach.

LHOFHCBS. He’s earned every letter of the acronym. Some disagree, but I do believe he saved K-State. He definitely had a big hand in taking us to our greatest heights. I’m forever thankful.

Hopefully you get to watch Cat football achieve even greater things in the future.

After Missouri in 2005, I remember seeing grown men weep in the stands.  At the time, I didn't get it.  I loved Snyder, but didn't appreciate nor understand what the bad times can be like.  Figured everything would stay sunshine and rainbows.  I understand now what the bad times can be like and I hope we never return to that, change does need to be made though.  Thanks Bill, all the respect is earned.

Snyder v 1.0 came to an end with the Fresno St. game in 2004, where Wyatt vision was complaining about the Bulldog players pushing the KSU team around after plays were blown dead.  Writing on the wall.

Tbh, the only reason I'm still even paying attention to K-State, and college football in general, is because of Snyder. I'll probably catch a few games next year, but if he's retiring, then it's time for me to move on, as well.

Thanks for the memories, Bill.

For me the opposite is true.  A new coach would provide an immediate and much needed boost to my interest level and enthusiasm for KSU football.  I missed almost all of the game Saturday because I knew we had absolutely no shot to even be competitive with OU.

Well, until you come back for a game, drive down his highway, check out his museum, enter his stadium and take a pic w/ the lil stupid fitz's at his statue, are eating a loaded Snyder dog, and then maybe you'll remember him while watching Brent get a big home win.

Yeah, I remember how excited I was for game days knowing that we would see an innovative, aggressive, passionate team full of explosive athletes go out and attack the other team regardless of ranking.  Now, I am mainly lulled into hoping that we can play an error free, well executed game with a handful of breaks to keep us in the game against good teams.

As you noted, it has been a slow drain.

I'm assuming emotional because, this is absolutely the end of an era, an era that has a lot of very happy memories for all who were there for it. As much as some want to take a giant crap on the last 29 years, none of this exists without LHC Bill Snyder. That may not mean anything to some but to most it's certainly worth at least looking back with even a little bit of reverence.

What you described doesn't show a steady decline but the difference between Snyder 1.0 and the entirety of Snyder 2.0. Since 2009 we've always balanced on a knives edge, this second iteration wasn't done with superior talent but was with scheming. He's lost the fastball and doesn't have the talent to bail him out.

So it sounds like most of the AD is ready to move on from Bill, including Gene. And since meetings with Gene Sunday, Sean has been on the phone with all the big donors trying to get them to rally behind Bill if Gene contacts them.

Doesn't sound like Bill will be announcing a voluntary "retirement" any time soon.
Title: Re: LHC Bill Snyder Retirement Thread 2018
Post by: 420seriouscat69 on October 30, 2018, 08:29:01 AM
Big donors are one of the main reasons why Bill is feeling pressure right now and why Gene is more on top of this than Currie ever was. Also, Gene feels like we need a new up to date indoor practice facility before he'll ever be able to haul in the type of coach that we'd all really want.

Exception being 2011-12. That team had real talent at multiple positions. But he kinda lucked into all that talent and probably waited too long to start playing Klein.

I'm not reviewing old rosters, but I feel like almost every year we've had a few stud players that at least pushed for conference elite status. This year, it's like where the eff is that guy or guys? I dont' see it. I'm disregarding a member or two of the Oline here, maybe they fit that category. But offensively, we've got a few decent, but not bad ass offensive players.

come on.  the era you're referring to ended a long time ago as you pointed out in your response to kearneyman.  no one is taking a crap on what snyder has done. and nothing about bill leaving, and getting the eff out of the way of this program, is going to erase the memories we all have.

you want to feel emotion when he retires? be happy that his God complex can no longer hurt our program and he can no longer use his status as leverage against us.

contrary to popular belief, he does not own the k-state football program and it's not his to kill.

Yes. Tucks have infuriatingly short memories. It's why, even though every one of Snyder's teams in Snyder 2.0 start off the season incredibly slow/bad-looking, he puts together a string at the end to narrowly squeak us into a bowl game, and suddenly all is forgotten and forgiven in Tuck World. It's just too bad the Big XII doesn't backload our schedule with the heavyweights.

I certainly won't be "sad" when he's gone, but I agree with MIR.  These last 5 years have been extremely frustrating, mostly due to the uncomfortable (and unfair) position Snyder has put the program/fanbase in with the constant "will he/won't he."  But K-State football (and Bill) has brought me tons of great memories for my entire life.  the last 5 years don't erase the gratitude/nostalgia i have for that.

All he has to do is beat TCU, which suddenly is doable due to what's going on down there, or hang on until he can run off 3 in a row starting with the hated squawks, and he's good and possibly in line for a raise.

True

Potentially 7-5, 5-4 and 4th place in the conference with a bowl game on deck?

This Snyder-led team will have the momentum to make a run in 2019!

Big donors are one of the main reasons why Bill is feeling pressure right now and why Gene is more on top of this than Currie ever was. Also, Gene feels like we need a new up to date indoor practice facility before he'll ever be able to haul in the type of coach that we'd all really want.
Low indoor practice facility IQ here, but what exactly is wrong with the one we have?

It's smaller than more modern ones, we have one of the oldest indoor practice facilities in college football and I believe the first in the Big 12, and they want one closer to the field and facility.

i'm going to wait until it's official but this crap is going to get emotional

"emotional" as in you're mad because we suck?   don't feel too bad for the multi-millionaire who has a stadium and road named after him and who has used his status as leverage against the university.

Well that's, a take.

I'm assuming emotional because, this is absolutely the end of an era, an era that has a lot of very happy memories for all who were there for it. As much as some want to take a giant crap on the last 29 years, none of this exists without LHC Bill Snyder. That may not mean anything to some but to most it's certainly worth at least looking back with even a little bit of reverence.

come on.  the era you're referring to ended a long time ago as you pointed out in your response to kearneyman.  no one is taking a crap on what snyder has done. and nothing about bill leaving, and getting the eff out of the way of this program, is going to erase the memories we all have.

you want to feel emotion when he retires? be happy that his God complex can no longer hurt our program and he can no longer use his status as leverage against us.

contrary to popular belief, he does not own the k-state football program and it's not his to kill.

I like all of this.

My read is that we have a 79 year old coach at th helm of our most important revenue stream; therefore, our AD is, and probably has been since he started, vetting potential replacements.  That is no disrespect to Snyder or commitment from Taylor, just proactive management.  Hopefully being proactive and well prepared helps when the time comes.

Yes. Tucks have infuriatingly short memories. It's why, even though every one of Snyder's teams in Snyder 2.0 start off the season incredibly slow/bad-looking, he puts together a string at the end to narrowly squeak us into a bowl game, and suddenly all is forgotten and forgiven in Tuck World. It's just too bad the Big XII doesn't backload our schedule with the heavyweights.

They have short memories accept for when it comes to Prince. "We can't hire from the outside and risk another Prince fiasco!!!!!!"

By all means, we should be looking at and checking the interest of candidates.  Maybe see if they have any full color PDFs outlinging their zeal for life.

This is different from flying in an agent for a mediocre candidate multiple times in October (which I do not believe has actually happened).

If it is true that LittreLL’s agent has met with Taylor, I wouldn’t read too much into it. It is Taylor’s job to plan for the future and LittreLL’s agent’s job is to tirelessly promote LittreLL.  Taylor strikes me as the diligent type, he wants to do his homework before the lesson and study before the test.  I hope it pays off.


Knowing how hard my company recruits, background checks, interviews, etc.  I don’t see anything weird about flying in an agent of LittreLL’s stature to discuss a potential opening... heck we have done more for non management jobs.  Finding the right persons to target is important.  Finding the right person to replace Snyder will be monumental.

Big donors are one of the main reasons why Bill is feeling pressure right now and why Gene is more on top of this than Currie ever was. Also, Gene feels like we need a new up to date indoor practice facility before he'll ever be able to haul in the type of coach that we'd all really want.
Low indoor practice facility IQ here, but what exactly is wrong with the one we have?

It's smaller than more modern ones, we have one of the oldest indoor practice facilities in college football and I believe the first in the Big 12, and they want one closer to the field and facility.

The indoor facility has a full sized football field and a high ceiling.  They just want a fancier one so the can convert the old one to an indoor track.

Did you really think I don't know that we have a full field? The current indoor complex is smaller than, at the very least KU's soon to be competed facility, ISU, OSU, OU, and I'd presume UT; not to mention it's 2 decades older than those facilities.

What makes anyone think we could do any better that LittreLL? He's not a home run hire but he is a known commodity with a similar track record to Herman, Rhule, and Campbell.

He's a good offensive coach and recruiter. His current class is #1 in his conference and 40 spots higher than ours on the national ranks. He took over a 1-11 team and he's about to go to a 3rd straight bowl when they had been to 7 all time before him. 

It'd be fine and way better than what we have now.

KSU thinks the flailing coach at UNT is the best it can get. 

Is KSU that much worse is a job than KU still even after we had a hall of fame coach who won 2 conference titles and they almost lost 100 games in decade?

The key difference is that one of these fan bases is delusional, the other is not. KU approaches Aggy and Rapelor as far as their image of themselves goes. Also, don't forget that they had to throw their check book at their current AD to get him to come. They're going to have to do even more to get a halfway decent coach to show up.

We have a good shot at landing a decent coach to replace Snyder. I'm not going to get too upset about it until I know who the replacement is.

He's actually 100% correct though, just not in the way he would think he is. Snyder needs to go because of the direction of the program, not because of wins and losses. If we were 5-4 right now, this wouldn't have nearly the momentum that it does in the media. Of course if we were 5-4 our recruiting would still be awful, we'd still be hemorrhaging players, we'd still have no offensive identity, and we'd still have no plan for the future; but we'd be 5-4 and we certainly wouldn't be getting a column from Vahe Gregorian.

Yes this would have a lot less momentum if we won the close games, but there are 2 things that still bug me: (1) is a pretty steady downward trend since 2014 or so, (2) is just how helpless our team has looked for most of the year. Not just the final score but I’m talking the consistent wasted TOs either cause our QBs are just unprepared or our coordinators are slow getting the plays in, the ridiculous dropped passes, the WTF defensive breakdowns and horrible tackling, and the historically bad special teams play.

https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/north-texas-is-making-headlines-and-seth-LittreLL-may-be-headed-down-tom-hermans-path/
This article should help. My favorite excerpt from it...

Quote
There isn't an obvious landing place for LittreLL at the moment. He's too good to jump up to Power Five at a moribund program like Kansas, but a good fit like Texas Tech looks like it won't open after this season. It's not like he's trapped. The goals are different.


Honestly, the more I read about him, the more I start to like him. I think he'd be a great fit and really help knock the "family tucks" around. Plus, he brings energy to the sidelines.

Nearly 30 players have left the team the last two seasons for reasons other than graduation, recruiting has been tepid and indications are that the blind faith Snyder once enjoyed has eroded. -- KC Star.

If he doesn't leave, his players will leave.  No discipline is a sign of tumult within the organization.  Taking a dump on Zuber is bad.9

I like LittreLL.

He did well in his first stint as OC at Arizona.

Had a top 20 offense in his second season at Indiana.

Had a top 20 offense in his second season at North Carolina.

Had success and recruited well at North Texas.

Offensive guy, worked with good coaches.

My top pick would probably be Leach. Then Brent or LittreLL.

Please refute as I want Snyder to leave as a ledgend.
Consider this from Football scoop.com 2017
"So, yes, there’s a reason Paterno and Bowden are the appropriate examples when understanding the dynamic between Snyder and Kansas State. Those three coaches are the only three of the four men to actively coach as members of the College Football Hall of Fame’s coaches wing, and each built his respective program from fringe activity into a cultural and civic institution. Paterno and Bowden also saw their tenures meet horrifically ugly ends, and it’s possible Snyder’s story ends the same way in Manhattan."

Steffy makes a good point about wins last year to go to bowl,  but ...
The downward trajectory is obvious, and at what point does the Cat family say enough or become horribly divided.
I would not support Sean as HC.  I think it would tear things apart.  See what bad coach hires have done to KU.
I guess the bottom line is $$$$.  Would you buy a season ticket for next year if Bill stays on or Sean is HC?
All of my points are mute if Bill retires gracefully.  I have my doubts he will.

yesterday sucked. i think KSO has good sources but they may be reading too much into what they're being told. because i bought it, and then reached out to my sources who were very coy with their responses, which in my head confirmed something was happening. we all probably need to chill.

Steffy makes a good point about wins last year to go to bowl,  but ...
The downward trajectory is obvious, and at what point does the Cat family say enough or become horribly divided.
I would not support Sean as HC.  I think it would tear things apart.  See what bad coach hires have done to KU.
I guess the bottom line is $$$$.  Would you buy a season ticket for next year if Bill stays on or Sean is HC?
All of my points are mute if Bill retires gracefully.  I have my doubts he will.
What is a mute point, renocat?

How an exit is handled can mean so much.  Done ugly, Snyder''s legacy could be tarnished, and the fan base divided.  Frank''s departure was ugly, and messed up that fan base.  Retire and he can avoid tearing us apart and harming his legacy.

renocat, I had this vision last night of what the atmosphere would be like for Bill's last game at BSFS on 11/17 if the retirement was announced sometime prior to game. It be an electric buzz of good EMAW feelings and appreciation like we haven't experienced since 12/1/12. Bill still holds the power to heal and unify the K-State family with his exit.

I hope.  I was at the game where he got win 200.  I admit that cried.  He means so much to us. 
The next coach needs a handoff in an atmosphere of love.  If so, I think the administration might be willing to give a hotshot assistance from somewhere to be HC like they did for Snyder.

Big donors are one of the main reasons why Bill is feeling pressure right now and why Gene is more on top of this than Currie ever was. Also, Gene feels like we need a new up to date indoor practice facility before he'll ever be able to haul in the type of coach that we'd all really want.
Low indoor practice facility IQ here, but what exactly is wrong with the one we have?


Tom

Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk

It's smaller than more modern ones, we have one of the oldest indoor practice facilities in college football and I believe the first in the Big 12, and they want one closer to the field and facility.

The indoor facility has a full sized football field and a high ceiling.  They just want a fancier one so the can convert the old one to an indoor track.

Did you really think I don't know that we have a full field? The current indoor complex is smaller than, at the very least KU's soon to be competed facility, ISU, OSU, OU, and I'd presume UT; not to mention it's 2 decades older than those facilities.

Lol, we’re going to build a new one and just how technologically advanced does an indoor facility need to be?

I think there maybe some talent on the staff but nobody will ever know because we have 2 DCs and 3 OCs, a special teams coordinator who is accountable to no one and a HC that won't hold anybody accountable.  Any good idea is compromised down to nothing and nobody has any authority to stop it.

Yea, I didn't mean to sound like I disagree.  If someone wants to sift through this staff an keep a body or two, fine, but I wouldn't be sad to see anybody go either.

I would be fine with Sean staying on as STC too.  I think he has largely done a good job in the past and could do a good job with a new coach that hold him more accountable than a 20 year old that wasn't on the field for 2/3s of the mistakes.

Almost all of them. Between Bill and Sean, it's becoming a tag team effort on ruining this program and a mass exodus is looming (already started?). People who know Sean, know he could not handle a single second of being the head coach at K-State. Sean has spent weeks sending emails and making phone calls to donors, sounding like a sad 12 year old boy trying to save his dads job, claiming he can turn it around again.

It's ridiculous, and sadly, we need to completely rid K-State football of the Snyder's. There's just not a single position in the program for Sean, after Bill gets pushed out in 3-10 days.

Didn't you ingrates learn anything in kindergarten?  You always leave things just the way you found them.  We should thank Bill for putting things back into their normal condition before his forthcoming exit and for having the foresight to understand that Sean might be necessary to finish the job.

It can't possibly be kosher to withhold benefits from athletes.

I should add that a lot of what this dude is talking about seems soft. That doesn't change the fact that withholding benefits is extremely wrong and can't be above board.

There is a group that's recently been started on the facebook by a former K-State RB called "The Pulse of K-State Football" and a lot of former players are participating in the discussion there.   It was started, as I understand it, due to the sunshine pumping "The Family" forum where any negativity whatsoever or any mention of the skeletons in the closet gets deleted and the user faces the dreaded banhammer.

The facade is cracking and the truth from behind closed doors is finally starting to creep out.

There was s lot to be excited about with him after last year. I didn’t think Snyder would sit Zuber for petty crap and I had no clue how important Pringle was to this offense. He looks timid af this year. I’m sure having our worst receiving core in Snyder’s coaching career hasn’t helped with his confidence.
